I picked up an XLR connector (not an adapter) at Radio Shack and wired it up to a cheapo video cable I had laying around. Voila! It works! Thanks Michael! Bruce
Great idea Michael! Are these Markertek adapters the type you mean?
My fingers are crossed, I love the AVM20 and want to keep it in my rack. I dare say I may even be willing to try as many units as they'll provide.

This seems to be the problem with my Lexicon LDD-1 AC-3 demodulator. Who else is using a demod and what type are you using? BTW, my 2nd AVM20 has the popping/center channel cutting out problem. Another replacement is on the way. "Third time's a charm" or "Three strikes, you're out"? Bruce
Sorry, I should've said that I've already been there, done that. I've also tried other inputs besides aux. I've been through all the input settings. I did not get a chance to call Anthem today, now I'll have to wait 'til Monday. Bruce
I got my replacement yesterday. Very quick turn-around. My dealer is impressed with Anthem's support and so am I. New unit is working great. I have one question though.
LD Demodulator won't work w/ AVM20?
I have a CLD-99 LD player connected through a Lexicon LDD-1 demodulator. It worked fine...
I have sad news to report. My AVM20 that I've only had for a week won't power up. Worked just fine the other day, now it won't turn on. I talked to Nick at Anthem and he told me about the fuses. I already knew about the fuse issues in early models but this is a newer unit. Just to make sure I...
Evan, It sounds like there's not enough signal to the sub at low volumes to keep the sub from turning off. How about lowering the sub amp's 'volume' and increasing the sub output on the AVM-20? This should send a stronger signal to the sub and keep it from shutting off. Bruce p.s. I...
Still waiting here. My dealer says there are none in the warehouse right now. 2-3 weeks wait.
This is an interesting deal since my dealer is not an Anthem dealer. He is a Paradigm dealer. Last fall I was getting a Studio CC and a pair of ADPs from him when he asked me about Anthem. His company...
BTW, the subs are a pair of SVS Ultras. I can't wait to compare the tube DAC to the DACs in the AVM-20. I don't use the X-30 crossover anymore. It's great for music but I could never get the subs to sound right with movies. After reading the recent posts on how the various bass signals...

I would like to extend my thanks to everyone that has participated in this thread. It's mostly due to the fantastic sharing of information here that I have just hung up the phone from ordering an AVM-20 from my local dealer. Holy Crap! I'm excited!!WOOHOO!! Bruce
